Examples of mimas in a Sentence

  1. Marc Neveu:

    Evaluating Mimas' status as an ocean moon would benchmark models of its formation and evolution, this would help us better understand Saturn's rings and mid-sized moons as well as the prevalence of potentially habitable ocean moons, particularly at Uranus. Mimas is a compelling target for continued investigation.

  3. Alyssa Rhoden:

Turns out, Mimas' surface was tricking us, and our new understanding has greatly expanded the definition of a potentially habitable world in our solar system and beyond.
